30 CFR Parts 201, 206, 212, 216, 217, 218, 219, 220, 227, 228, 230, 
241, and 243

RIN 1010-AC87


Technical Amendments

AGENCY: Minerals Management Service (MMS), Interior.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The MMS is updating its regulations to reflect changes in our 
organization name, system names, handbook titles, addresses, and 
regulatory cites as well as correcting miscellaneous clerical errors. 
We are also removing certain parts of the CFR relating to laws that 
have been repealed. These technical amendments will make MMS 
regulations more accurate and useful.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This rule is effective April 18, 2002.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Carol P. Shelby, Regulatory 
Specialist, Minerals Management Service, Minerals Revenue Management, 
P.O. Box 25165, MS 320B2, Denver, Colorado 80225-0165; telephone (303) 
231-3151; FAX (303) 231-3385; e-mail [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final rule contains technical 
amendments that will make MMS regulations more accurate and useful. The 
Department of the Interior finds good cause to issue this rule without 
notice and opportunity for public comment. Public comment is 
unnecessary because this rule contains technical amendments that relate 
to (1) agency administration and, thus, do not affect the regulated 
community or (2) regulations rendered null and void by subsequent 
legislation over which MMS has no control. For the same reasons, a 30-
day period is not required between publication of the final rule and 
its effective date under 5 U.S.C. 553(d). All of the amendments in this 
rule are covered in the following seven categories:

Organization Name

    In October 2000, the MMS Royalty Management Program was reorganized 
and renamed Minerals Revenue Management. To reflect this change, we 
have removed all references to the Royalty Management Program wherever 
it occurs in our regulations. The change in organization name 
necessarily affected the title of our Associate Director which we also 
corrected in this rule.

System Names

    In October 2001, we implemented our reengineered financial and 
compliance computer system. To reflect this change, we have removed all 
references to our former computer systems--the Auditing and Financial 
System (AFS) and the Production Accounting and Auditing System (PAAS)--
wherever they occur in our regulations.

Handbook Titles

    In October 2001, we began using revised handbooks to reflect our 
reengineered reporting requirements. Thus, we revised references to 
previous handbook titles such as the Oil and Gas Payor Handbook, the 
PAAS Onshore Oil and Gas Reporter Handbook, and the PAAS Reporter 
Handbook--Lease, Facility/Measurement Point, and Gas Plant Operators 
wherever they occur in our regulations. We also replaced specific 
titles with the more generic terms, revenue reporter handbook and 
production reporter handbook, in order to minimize future regulatory 
revisions.

Addresses

    On February 11, 2002, the Office of Hearings and Appeals moved 
their office location to a new street address in Arlington, Virginia. 
In part 241, we corrected the street address to read 801 North Quincy 
Street wherever necessary.

Regulatory Cites

    Over a number of years, various sections, and paragraphs within 
sections, have been renumbered and often re-titled as our regulations 
were amended. Because regulatory amendments occur quite frequently, we 
have changed our cross-references to refer readers, in most cases, to 
specific parts rather than the sections or paragraphs within the parts. 
We believe this practice will minimize the need for future regulatory 
changes. For example, rather than refer the reader to 30 CFR 210.53, 
which may not exist after a pending revision becomes effective, we have 
generalized the cross-reference to read ``part 210 of this chapter.''

Miscellaneous Corrections

    We are also taking this opportunity to make miscellaneous 
corrections such as the name of a subsequently amended law and certain 
spelling errors.

Regulations Repealed by Law

    We removed part 230 because it pertains to refunds under Section 10 
of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1339). Section 10 
was repealed by the Federal Oil and Gas Royalty Simplification and 
Fairness Act of 1996 (30 U.S.C 1732 note) effective August 13, 1996. 
Procedures for requesting Section 10 refunds before and after repeal 
are contained in chapter 6 of our revenue reporter handbook.

Procedural Matters

1. Summary Cost and Benefit Data

    This is an MMS administrative action that imposes no monetary costs 
or benefits on industry, the Federal Government, State and local 
governments, or Indian tribes and allottees. The cost and benefit 
information in this Item 1 of Procedural Matters is used as the basis 
for the Departmental certifications in Items 2-12.

2. Regulatory Planning and Review (Executive Order 12866)

    This document is not a significant rule and is not subject to 
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order 
12866.
    (1) This rule will not have an effect of $100 million or more on 
the economy.

[[Page 19110]]

It will not adversely affect in a material way the economy, 
productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public health or 
safety, or State, local, or tribal governments or communities.
    (2) This rule will not create a serious inconsistency or otherwise 
interfere with an action taken or planned by another agency.
    (3) This rule does not alter the budgetary effects of entitlements, 
grants, user fees, or loan programs or the rights or obligations of 
their recipients.
    (4) This rule does not raise novel legal or policy issues.

3. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Department of the Interior certifies that this document will 
not have a significant adverse effect on a substantial number of small 
entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.).

4. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Act (SBREFA)

    This rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804(2), the Small 
Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act. This rule:
    a. Does not have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or 
more.
    b. Will not cause a major increase in costs or prices for 
consumers, individual industries, Federal, State, or local government 
agencies, or geographic regions.
    c. Does not have significant adverse effects on competition, 
employment, investment, productivity, innovation, or the ability of 
U.S.-based enterprises to compete with foreign-based enterprises.

5. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    This rule does not impose an unfunded mandate on State, local, or 
tribal governments or the private sector of more than $100 million per 
year. The rule does not have a significant or unique effect on State, 
local, or tribal governments or the private sector. A statement 
containing the information required by the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 
(2 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) is not required.

6. Takings (Executive Order 12630)

    In accordance with Executive Order 12630, this rule does not have 
significant takings implications. This rule does not impose conditions 
or limitations on the use of any private property; consequently, a 
takings implication assessment is not required.

7. Federalism (Executive Order 13132)

    In accordance with Executive Order 13132, this rule does not have 
Federalism implications. This rule does not substantially or directly 
affect the relationship between the Federal and State governments or 
impose costs on States or localities.

8. Civil Justice Reform (Executive Order 12988)

    In accordance with Executive Order 12988, the Office of the 
Solicitor has determined that this rule does not unduly burden the 
judicial system and meets the requirements of sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) 
of the Order.

9. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This rule does not contain any new or changed information 
collections, as defined by the Paperwork Reduction Act, that must be 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget for approval.

10. National Environmental Policy Act

    This rule does not constitute a major Federal action significantly 
affecting the quality of the human environment. A detailed statement 
under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 is not required.

11. Consultation and Coordination With Indian Tribal Governments

    In accordance with Executive Order 13175, this rule does not have 
tribal implications that impose substantial direct compliance costs on 
Indian tribal governments.

12. Energy Effects

    Under Executive Order 13211, this rule is not a significant 
regulatory action and will not have a significant adverse effect on 
energy supply, distribution, or use. A Statement of Energy Effects is 
not necessary.
